​Fleet Technician

​Fleet technician job description

A fleet technician is any automotive repair expert responsible for the simultaneous upkeep and maintenance of many vehicles. Like a car or diesel mechanic, fleet technicians vary from the roles above by their duties to oversee an entire fleet of vehicles, usually fora single company (although this can change.)Fleet technicians are naturally found whenever many business vehicles are required, so they often manage specialized vehicles such as taxis, school buses, or delivery trucks.

According to ZipRecruiter, fleet technicians “service vehicles when they are returned to the motor pool, ensure that they meet all safety regulations, and report any issues.”[1] This definition highlights that fleet technicians usually service vehicles after returning to a central location rather than traveling to perform repairs in situ. Because large fleets can log tens of thousands of miles across North America in an average week, fleet technicians must assess and repair mechanical problems before the vehicles are driven off the lot.

Some companies outsource their fleet management needs to third-party companies. A fleet technician may be responsible for a single fleet of vehicles contracted out to multiple end-user businesses. However, in most instances, a fleet technician will work for a firm that owns various company cars —usually at least five or more.

​Lincolnshire (abbreviated Lincs.) is a county in the East Midlands of England, with a long coastline on the North Sea to the east. It borders Norfolk to the south-east, Cambridgeshire to the south, Rutland to the south-west, Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire to the west, South Yorkshire to the north-west, and the East Riding of Yorkshire to the north. It also borders Northamptonshire in the south for just 20 yards (19 m), England's shortest county boundary.[2] The county town is the city of Lincoln, where the county council has its headquarters.

The ceremonial county of Lincolnshire consists of the non-metropolitan county of Lincolnshire and the area covered by the unitary authorities of North Lincolnshire and North East Lincolnshire. Part of the ceremonial county is in the Yorkshire and the Humber region of England, and most is in the East Midlands region. The county is the second-largest of the English ceremonial counties and one that is predominantly agricultural in land use. The county is fourth-largest of the two-tier counties, as the unitary authorities of North Lincolnshire and North East Lincolnshire are not included.

The county has several geographical sub-regions, including the rolling chalk hills of the Lincolnshire Wolds. In the south-east are the Lincolnshire Fens (south-east Lincolnshire), the Carrs (similar to the Fens but in north Lincolnshire), the industrial Humber Estuary and North Sea coast around Grimsby and Scunthorpe, and in the south-west of the county, the Kesteven Uplands, rolling limestone hills in the district of South Kesteven.
